Quick tip from the Library
If your students haven’t tried www.wikipedia.org lately they should check it out and see the many updated features in foreign languages. The Wikipedia articles are not machine translations, but translations by a staff of volunteers “making them unique, cultural products.” Students can find information on a variety of topics, historical data on any country and interesting pictures of famous and not so famous people. Hopefully they will enjoy Wikipedia’s updates in foreign languages. Mathematics (Beth Blaustein)
